Of the 227 sitting MPs and senators, only 12 declared no property ownership.
Several senators are on the list, although we cannot be sure this provides an exhaustive picture because the property holdings of senators’ spouses are not published.
Some in this group declared a financial interest in trusts but were not required to disclose any property held in those trusts.

True but I still want to know if older people actually want expensive housing.

They want to sell their house to pay for the nursing home or leave it to their kids. They don’t want it to lose half its value.
